Ms Kate Duggan:

Can I just say three things? I am setting out here today the actions we have taken. We have done bursaries with Scotland. We have a new course opening in Limerick in the technological university in September. We have sponsored a new course to open in Sligo. We have an overseas campaign. We have also now engaged with the Minister, Deputy Harris, to launch an apprenticeship scheme for social workers. Those are all new initiatives that happened over the past 18 months to help us keep ahead in recruiting more social workers.
